We didn't want to have to explain it to everyone two times forward and once backwards so we didn't tell anyone until we knew it was official. We sold our house (officially) and are just getting ready to close on it next week. We are moving out this weekend into the Bangerters Farm House until we can close on our new one. We did hear bank from the bank (because it was a short sale property) and they accepted our offer. We are upgrading in size!! yahoo. Here's a picture of our new home. It's just a few streets down. Same Ward Same School! We should be in the first week of May or so. We will forward on all our new information to you through email. Until then I'm not sure what amenities we will have hooked up so more blogging then.

Quote of the Day

2/18/09I was singing "we're off to see the Wizard the wonderful wizard of oz.... Austin says outloud "that movie is scary for me". I replied with "I love it" and he said very matter of factly..."but mom...the wizards face freaks me out". Love this kid. 6/6/08This was a conversation that came up at dinner tonight.Redden: Dad...do girls have whole brains and boys only have half of a brain?Mom: jumping in quickly of course - Yep!Dad: No...whoever told you that doesn't know what they're talking about.5/25/08Redden: You don't want me having pop and a pocket knife at the same time...that would be real scary!

5/19/08Yesterday I went into Walgreens to pick up a prescription. They conveniently have a massage chair set up in there for people to sit on and try out while they wait. Yesterday he asked if he could sit in it and turn it on. I said yes go ahead. As I am called up to the register to pick up the meds, Austin shouts through the pharmacy... "Mom, Mom! It's workin' out my knuckles!". He had everyone rolling. There was a pregnant mother sitting on the chair next to him looking like she was gonna pop and I bet she was wondering what she had signed up for.
